Don’t Let Overinflated Commercial Property Valuations Hurt Your Business

Whether you own a single commercial property or a multi-property portfolio, there’s one undeniable truth: You’re overpaying on commercial property taxes. Lane Property Tax Advocates fights on your behalf to rein in overinflated commercial property valuations brought on by imperfect mass appraisal systems — and ensure you’re only paying what’s fair.
Lane’s experts are on your side and ready to guide you through every stage of a protest. From initial filing and information gathering, to representation through formal and informal hearings, and into arbitration or litigation proceedings if needed, Lane has every detail covered — and won’t stop fighting until your valuation is lower. With decades of firsthand experience, in-depth legal knowledge and relationships we can leverage with county appraisal districts (CADs) far and wide, Lane is here to save you money and unburden your business.
